The Solano Public Health has launched its first “One Pill Can Kill” Video Contest.

Solano County youth are invited to create compelling videos that raise awareness of the risks of fentanyl-laced pills and promote healthier choices.

High School or college level students can win up to $1,500 for their efforts.

“This contest is a creative way for young people to have fun, spread the word– and maybe even save a life,” Robin Cox, MPH, CPH, Solano County’s Health Promotion & Community Wellness (VibeSolano) Bureau Chief, said in a press release. “Knowing the source of any pill taken is critical to prevent an overdose. Teens may take street pills thinking they’re Oxycodone, Adderall or Xanax, risking potential death if they are counterfeits laced with fentanyl.”
